Congratulations to Elijah, our artist of the week. Elijah painted the Grace Chapel featuring excellent texture combinations, an inspiring, light-filled stained-glass window and inviting entry way. You can see the original work on display in the school office.

Order School Supplies for 2016-2017
Say "Good-Bye" to the crowds and long lines. Just imagine all of your child's school supplies neatly organized and waiting on their desk before school starts next year. All supplies are exactly what each teacher requires for their grade. The supplies are guaranteed and will be replaced for free if defective. A portion of the proceeds benefits the Grace Parent's Association (GPA).
You still have time to make a contribution to the Grace Fund. As you know, tuition does not cover the total operating expenses. Support from donors like you help us to bridge the gap necessary to bring your child the excellent, individualized education that characterizes Grace Episcopal Day School.
If you need to fulfill your pledge or would like to make a new gift this year, please visit
The Grace Fund and show your support today. Thank you for caring so much for the students and families at Grace.
"but they who wait for the
Lord shall renew their strength;they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint."
